Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden: Download Teaching Modules

For decades, the Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden (FTBG) has been "exploring, explaining, and conserving the world of tropical plants." Educators unable to tour the physical location in South Florida will welcome this phalanx of edifying materials. Here they will find Course Units on a variety of topics, including School Gardens, Ethnobotany, Basic Botany, Plant Adaptations and Conservation, and Tropical Botany. Each unit includes handouts, vocabulary lists, suggested homework assignments, lecture resources, and other activities to facilitate instruction and learning. For instance, Unit II: South Florida Plants and Ecosystems offers lecture resources and handouts, such as Native Plants for Your Garden, and activities like Life Under a Log and Native Plant Key. Free and easily downloadable, these teaching modules are a welcome find for educators looking for new and exciting ways to teach basic botany to elementary and middle school students.
